RETURN TO OZ – SCISSOR SISTERS

INTRO: (Acoustic Guitar, 72bpm, in correct key for piano)
C#m

VERSE 1: 
C#m
Once there was a man who had a 
E               B
little too much   time on his hands; 
Ab
he never stopped to think that he was getting 
 A
older.      When his
C#m
night came to an end,   he tried to
C
grasp his for his last friend, and
   G                               Bm
pretend that he could wish himself health on a four-leaf
  A
clover.

CHORUS: (+Drums)
           C
He said is this the return to Oz? The grass is
F7                Ab
dead, the gold is brown and the sky has
C
claws.      There’s a
C
wind-up man walking round and round; what 
F7               Ab
once was Emerald City's now a crystal
C
town.

VERSE 2: (+Piano)
C#m
    Three o'clock in the morning,   you get a 
E                   B
phone call from the Queen with a hundred
Ab
heads,   she says that they're all 
A
dead.      She tried the
C#m
last one on, it couldn't speak, fell off, and 
C
now she just wanders the halls,     thinking 
G         Bm
nothing.      Thinking nothing at
A
all.

CHORUS:
            C
She said is this the return to Oz? The grass is
F7                Ab
dead, the gold is brown and the sky has
C
claws.      There’s a
C
wind-up man walking round and round; what 
F7               Ab
once was Emerald City's now a crystal
C
town.

VERSE 3: (-Electric Guitar)
C#m
The wheelies are cutting pavement,   and the 
E               B
skeksies at the rave are meant to
Ab
hide,   deep inside their sunken 
A
faces and their wild rolling 
C#m
eyes. But their callous words 
  C
reveal,   that they can no longer 
G               Bm
feel    love or sex appeal;   the
A
patchwork girl has come to cinch the…

CHORUS:
C
deal.  Do return to Oz; we
F7                   Ab
thank the world with smiles and clenching
C
jaws.         Please
C
help me friend from coming down. I’ve
F7               Ab
lost my face and now it can’t be
C
found.        Is
C
this the return to Oz? The grass is
F7               Ab
dead the gold is brown and the sky has
C
claws.      There’s a
C
wind-up man walking round and round; what 
F7               Ab
once was Emerald City's now a crystal
C
town.
